Introducing Brevity
A new addition to Comics.com, Brevity is not your normal comics fare. In the hands of Guy Endore-Kaiser and Rodd Perry, it is sharply intelligent, amusingly idiosyncratic and often uproariously funny. The sly sense of humor and understated art make this feature unlike anything else on the comics pages today.

Catch Up With Luann!
Luann brings to life the real daily drama of being a young woman. She has crushes. She makes mistakes. She takes on romance, rejection, success, and embarrassment with zest and humor.
The Story So Far:
Luann's enigmatic love interest Aaron Hill has moved to Hawaii; leaving Luann in a love lurch. It's the perfect opportunity for Gunther to make his move, but he's too busy calculating which young lady he's more interested in; Bernice or Luann. Meanwhile, Luann's brother Brad has passed Fire Academy, but his graduation ceremony was no picnic. Toni told her boyfriend Dirk she was going to the dentist when she was really attending Brad's graduation; and then Dirk discovered the truth. The resulting scene allowed Brad to finally make his stand, and while the fist fight put a pall on his graduation celebration it did have one positive outcome. Toni decided she was done with making excuses for Dirk's behavior. She asked Brad to press charges! Now that she's single, will Brad finally work up the courage to ask her out?
